Zayn's Point of View

I walked along the sidewalk with my hands stuffed deep on my coat pockets. I shivered slightly as the cool spring air hit me. I was meeting my friend Louis Tomlinson at a old coffee shop that has been in North Carolina since the beginning of time or thats what i have been told. I walked in and the scent of sweet baked goods and the smell of sweet bitter coffee. I smiled slightly noticing that the shop wasnt very crowded. Walking to the counter, I smiled at Missy who was texting on her phone.

"Well well well! Texting on the job I see!" I smirked leaning against the counter. Missy sent me a playful glare and smiled finishing her text. Missy had straight black hair that went down to the middle of her back. J She had dark green eyes that sparkled and she was very slim.

"So what do want to bug me about today Zayn?" She smirked typing in my order that i normally get every time im here, which is a lot since it is like my second home.

"Well since you asked....where is your lovely mother?" I asked looking towards the back of the shop hoping to be able to see where Mrs. Ship, or as she likes everyone to call her Momma. I have a strong relationship with the Ship's because ever since i moved to America from Bradford, and I hadnt had very many friends. So one day i decided to come into the Coffee Shop to get away from all the people and my family. The Ship's seemed to take me under their wing and we have been family ever since.

"My lovely mother isnt here right now actually! She is too busy having fun at the beach!" She said rolling her eyes.

"Oh did Missy want to go to the beach too?" I said pouting at her.

"Oh shove off you ass! You know how much i love the beach! I would rather be there than here!" She sighed. My order had been finished being made and Missy handed it to me. I went to the corner of the shop and sat down in a small booth.

As i waited for Louis i slowly drank my coffee taking in everything around me. My eyes landed upon a girl with blonde wave hair that fell slightly over her shoulders. I could only see her back but i could tell she was beautiful. Yes i know what your thinking, 'Wow Zayn you are such a creep, staring at complete strangers like that.' Yeah well you would to if you were a boy or if you were single.

I heard the bell at the door chime and i looked up to see Louis walking in. His feather brown hair laying gently on his forehead and his blue eyes sparkling with mischievous  He saw me and waved. I waved back and he sat down across from me.

"Hey Zayn whats up?" He asked with his strong Doncaster accent

"Nothing much mate how about yourself?"

"Me and El have been fighting and I just needed to get out of the house for a bit." He took his drink from the table and put it to his lips drink small sips.

"What about?"

"Nothing to serious but ya know something that is fight worthy."

That was my cue to stop asking about the fight and get his mind off of whatever they are fighting over.

Louis and Eleanor have been going out for a long time and you can tell they love each other. I wish I had their relationship sometimes, ya know the one that you have been with each other forever and have seen each other good and bad sides. The couple that everyone looks at and knows they are in love and are perfect for each other?

I stopped thinking about my dream taken life when Louis's phone started to ring.

"I'll be right back mate it's Eleanor." He said standing up and answering his phone.

I watched as he walked out when I heard the seat across from me squeak. I looked over to see a girl with curly brown hair stuck into a ponytail, she had dark brown eyes almost like mine.

She smiled at me with her shining white straightened teeth.

"Hello! I was sitting right over there," she said in a strong American accent pointing over to the girl with blonde hair who was now staring at us with amusement in her eyes, which I noticed were a dark blue. " And I saw this here tattoo and I was wondering how bad it hurt and where you got this brilliant tattoo!!" She smiled pointing at my sleeve of tattoos.

"Which one?" I asked not knowing where her finger was pointing to.

"This one." She said lifting my arm in her hand pointing at my ZAP tattoo. Her hand was very pale compared to my skin, contrasting against each others almost perfectly.

"I don't remember where I got it probably somewhere in London, but it hurt a lot but I had someone there with me to help with the pain." I said looking at the girl.

"Nice, well I see your friend is coming back so I will leave you alone! Goodbye!" She smiled at me again moving out if the seat and walking over to her friend who was standing and waiting for her at the table. They walked out and the girl waved goodbye while her friend dragged her out.

I noticed Louis had sat down in front of me smiling. I raised an eyebrow and took a sip of my coffee.

"She was cute!" He smiled

"Yeah, I guess." I looked at him in confusing

"Did you get her number?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Cause i didnt? I didnt ask and she didnt either. She only wanted to know where i got my tattoo."

Louis's face dropped when i said that "Oh, really thought you would finally get a girlfriend."

"Wha- We barley talked! Jesus! I like being a single pringle thank you!" I said rubbing my face

"Mhm sure" he smiled

"Ugh, so what did El have to say?"

"Oh she apologized and we are back to being the lovey couple everyone adores." He stated smirking at me "Jealous?" He grinned

"Nope!" I said popping the p

"Sure! But besides that i was wondering if you would like to go get pizza tonight with me and Liam. we are going around 6ish then going to meet up at the bowling ally with Harry and Niall." He said standing up stretching

"Yeah ill come, i have nothing to do anyway." I smiled standing up with him

"Alright see ya there sexy." he smiled as we walked separate ways to our homes. I smiled and walked down the sidewalk away from the small coffee shop and Louis back towards my small apartment that i just bought. I started to think about the mystery girl that had come up to me in the shop. Her eyes sparkling with happiness and her lips formed into a wide smile.

Jesus why didnt i get her number?
